What buyers in 78746 are paying for

In Westlake, these features tend to separate the homes that sell from the ones that sit:

  • Eanes ISD schools, including Westlake High School
  • Views and privacy on hillside lots
  • Quick access to downtown, Loop 360, and MoPac
  • Updated or new homes that need little work

What to do before listing your 78746 home

Start with a comparative market analysis built on closed sales near your home, not the whole ZIP code. Then fix the items an inspector is likely to flag. Price to recent closed sales on your street and in your section of 78746, not the ZIP median. Westlake prices vary widely by lot, view, and school zone.

In addition, check your home’s appraisal history on the Travis Central Appraisal District property search, since buyers often look too.
